You’ll take part in engaging and stimulating teaching through our interactive and challenging teaching sessions which focus not only on the letter of the law, but also the practical application and critique of it.

You’ll learn how to argue a case effectively in court, interview clients and negotiate agreements, benefitting from simulated trials and tribunals in our dedicated Moot Court Room. You can also take part in both internal and external mooting competitions and become part of our successful alumni of previous winners.
Put your theory into practice by advising real life clients as part of our assessed Law Clinic. You’ll have the opportunity to offer legal advice under the supervision of a solicitor, preparing you to be an autonomous and confident legal professional for practice when you graduate. You could also spend a year on placement through the four year sandwich course option.
The University of Gloucestershire Law Clinic offers pro bono legal advice to business and members of the local community, including charities, staff and students. Students can become Legal Advisors and can assist with real cases, under the supervision of a practising solicitor.
